This Asian superstition comes from a Chinese person who grew up in Malaysia:
Pregnant women should not sit on the edge of a bed and sew because this will cause the backside of the baby to be sealed shut!
How strange!! Can you think of any extremely bizarre superstitions from your own culture?? I'd love to hear them!

American Snow Day Superstitions!
Hey all! Even though it's turning into summer, I have snow on my mind...
I'm not sure if this is only an American thing to do, but we have superstitions to get snowdays! Some superstitions that supposedly will bring snowdays are:
-Dance with a penny
-Turn your pajamas inside out
-Put a spoon under your pillow
Is this only done in America?
Does anybody know any other snowday superstitions?

Know any European Superstitions?
Comment European superstitions here!! I can't wait to hear them!
I'm studying in the Czech Republic in the fall and this is an interesting superstition from Czech culture:
It is good luck for a bride to break a plate on her wedding day. The groom should then sweep it up, and all of the guests get a fragment of the smashed plate, and the new bride and groom keep a piece for themselves as well.
